Guys & Gals, Can you please shine some light on a wee problem i seem to be getting with CAv.46 (apologies if you have answered this query a thousand times). I have a clean installation of; BGII (full) TOB (full) Patched to v26498. I have downloaded v.46 (& the patch) & extracted the .RAR files to the main BGII directory, when i run the installation file i get the following message;

[D:\Program Files\Black Isle\BGII - SoA\Setup-Classics046.exe] WeiDU version 203
00
[D:\Program Files\Black Isle\BGII - SoA\Setup-Classics046.exe] Using scripting s
tyle "BG"

The SETUP-CLASSICS046.TP2 mod has 8 distinct optional components.
To save time, you can choose what to do with them at a high level rather
than being asked about each one.

What should be done with all components that are NOT YET installed?
[I]nstall them, [S]kip them, [A]sk about each one? i

The Infinite Stacking option is already in CA and I see you installed it. That would have nothing to do with this problem. My concern I see is that you are installing to a non-C: drive. There have been issues in the past with installing mods onto drives other than C:. My understanding is that as long as you did a full SoA/ToB install onto the same drive, everything should work. If the game files are on C and the mod installed to D, it won't work.

Tired of Bhaal? Try some classics mods instead:

Well, as I see it, either you didn't copy all the extracted files to the D:\Program Files\Black Isle\BGII - SoA\ so the two files(Setup-Classic046.exe, Setup-Classic046.tp2) and one directory(Classics046) take about 1.06 to 1.07 Gb's before installation, and after about 1.11 Gb's.
Or, your baldur.ini doesn't point to that direction with the [Alias]

Plus there is the possibility that you are running with Vista without the UAC(user account control) turned off, and so the changes you make to the files are all stored to another direction and thus invalidated. Nice Vista <_<

Jarno/SBB. Thanks for the help, I re installed everything on to C:, ran setup & everything loaded ok. Just for your info, I am really looking forward to CA (having played the PnP version of the early modules about a hundred years ago) We have a small (but committed) party of 5 Die hard D&D fans who have been meeting at mine every week since BGI first hit the shelves (i think it was 98?) since then we have played (& replayed) all of the BG & ID games many times. We have tried a few of the mods, the last being BGT which was a blast & lasted us about 6 months, but after we finished the old party was starting to get (I hate to say it) bored of going over old ground again & again, so it looks like CA is the answer we seek, & its down to guys like you who keep the torch burning for us committed (the missus would say we should be committed!)

Many thanks & keep up the good work ( I will pass the Mages hat around & see if we can whip up a contribution)
